Speaking of the helmet, this isn’t the first time he’s worn one. Waldron had caught the world’s attention by wearing the same helmet in the T20I series against Pakistan last year in November.
In today’s match, India won the toss and elected to bat first. Smriti Mandhana’s superb knock of 87 helped the Women in Blue board for 143. Apart from Mandhana’s brilliance, the rest of the batsmen struggled to get going on a slow and sluggish pitch.
This is a must win for India as they lost to England in the previous game. The win sealed India’s place in the semi-finals. However, the loss puts India in serious danger of relegation. The Harmanpreet-led outfit had won their first two matches against Pakistan and West Indies.
